My Review of The Last Piece of My Heart by Paige Toon

Welcome to my review of The Last Pieceof My Heart by Paige Toon.

What They Say:

When life feels like a puzzle, sometimes it's the small pieces that make up the bigger picture... Join Bridget on a journey to put her world back together.

A successful travel journalist, Bridgethas ambitions to turn her quirky relationship blog about the missing pieces of her heart into a book. But after a spate of rejections from publishers, she accepts an alternative proposition.

Nicole Dupré died leaving behind a bestselling novel and an incomplete sequel. Tasked with finishing the book, Bridget is thankful to have her foot in the publishing door, even if it means relocating to Cornwall for the summer and answering to Nicole's grieving husband,Charlie...

What I Say:

The Last Piece of My Heart is, what I would call, a perfect read. It's charming, funny, warm and gripping. I was kept guessing the outcome until the very end, which I loved!

Paige has a wonderful way of making you feel like you are properly invested in the story. Her characters are so well written, the scenery is gorgeous and the story is very different to any other I have read.

Bridget is so warm and endearing. She's drawn into a world she never really expected to be part of and she struggles to find her way. She's determined to succeed and make it work for her, and she does!

Charlie is confused and hurting. He needs a friend and Bridget fills that gap. I was a little (ok a lot!) in love with him! And little April. Oh, I loved her! Such a little doll!

I didn't know what to expect and how it would all turn out in the end but I was satisfied with the outcome. I really want to visit Cornwall now though!!

Love, love, love The Last Piece of My Heart!!! 10/10

Big thanks to Sara Jade Virtue at BATC and the author for sending me an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Blog Tour Stop with Review - The Book-Lover's Retreat by Heidi Swain

Welcome to my blog tour stop and review of The Book-Lover's Retreat by Heidi Swain! What They Say:  One long summer. One perfect setting. Can fiction inspire real life…?   Sometimes a book grabs you by the heart and grows to mean everything to you. That’s what  Hope Falls  is to friends Emily, Rachel and Tori. So, when they get the chance to spend a whole summer at the cottage in Lakeside where the film adaptation was located, they know it is going to be the holiday of a lifetime. Spending six weeks away will give them a chance to re-evaluate their life choices. For Emily to decide which way her career will go – the safe route, or the more risky creative option? And for Rachel to decide whether to move in with her partner Jeremy. Then Tori has to drop out at the last moment, and her space is offered to another  Hope Falls  afficionado, Alex.  But when Alex turns out not to be who they expected, the holiday takes an unforeseen turn. And as the summer develops, so does their friendsh

Blog Tour Stop with Review of A Truth For A Truth by Carol Wyer

  First off, I must apologise to Zoe and Carol. My blog tour stop was yesterday, and somehow my post got lost in the ether. I didn't notice until today, as thr hubby hasn't been well, and my time has been taken up with my dogs and caring for hubs. So, a day late and pared down from my original post due to lack of time, here is my review of A.Truth For A Truth by the wonderful Carol Wyer. Review: What can I say?? Any book by Carol Wyer is going to be a hit in my opinion, and this is no exception. DI Kate Young is a flawed character who is full of heart and humility. I think she's been dealt a shit hand in life, and struggles to figure out her path. Traumas and dramas, untrustworthy men, and unstable mental health make her slightly difficult to bond with sometimes. But still, I care a lot about her wellbeing. This installment of her series is really compelling, and an interesting take on a "who dunnit". More of a "who will they THINK dunnit"! I loved that!
